With the EV market set to grow rapidly over the coming years, the industry faces a challenging ramp-up of volume and material performance demands. From the current trend towards high-energy high-nickel cathode materials, driven in-part by consumer range anxiety, to the emergence of solid-state and beyond lithium ion technologies, herein we review the changing requirements for active materials in automotive lithium ion battery applications, and how science and industry is set to respond.
